Didn’t receive a Christmas card from us this year?

Fenella Frost — 2012-12-19T15:49:45+00:00

PhotonStar has chosen not to send paper Christmas cards this year as part of our sustainability policy - but it is not "greenwash". We chose, along with other local companies and volunteers, to give a Christmas “gift” to a local family instead. Sustainability is, we believe, also about supporting the local community that you live in. Whilst we continue to create more and more UK based jobs, at this “time of goodwill to all men” the money that we would have spent sending on cards was spent on helping a very deserving family in Fareham at Christmas time.
